Kate Courtney (Stanford University) is really putting her mark on Division I women's racing. On Saturday, she claimed the cross-country win after taking the short track win on Friday.
 
Our conference's very own Courtney finished ahead of silver medalist Lauren Catlin (Fort Lewis College) while Sofia Fomez Villafane (Fort Lewis College) took the bronze. Coryn Rivera (Marian University) and Linnea Dixson (University of Wyoming) claimed the fourth and fifth steps of the cross-country podium.
 
Essence Barton (California Lutheran University) also made it to the podium in Division II women's racing for the endurance events. And she finished downhill with a time of 3:20.674 for third place and Ali Osgood (Humboldt State University) moved into 4th. The two also made it to the podium in DS, with Essence winning the event.
